Using principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), trauma processing, and solution-focused therapy, I support individuals with fostering a greater connection with themselves and others, creating peace of mind, and building habits that lend to greater satisfaction of needs, wants, and sense of purpose in life.I work with individuals to promote comfort and safety in the therapeutic relationship. Those efforts serve to challenge harmful beliefs about the self, others and the world, creating space for compassion, understanding, and a willingness to re-engage with life.

I am accountable for efficient case-conceptualization to give appropriate guidance within a 30-60 minute window. I utilize a brief-solution focused model to emphasize callers' strengths, recognize unworkable strategies, and generate action.I've managed to uphold an average intake of 20 callers weekly, while juggling peer consultation, case management, professional development and supervision.

As a Crisis Responder, I was primarily responsible for co-regulating the callers emotional distress. By maintaining a relaxed demeanor, and validating feeling - hopelessness, worthlessness, isolation, shame, etc. - I helped soothe the callers pain so as to guide them towards creating immediate safety. I was challenged with disconnecting from the caller's circumstance (and the outcomes of my intervention) following our interaction for the purpose of supporting successive callers over a 4 hour period.

I promote student wellness through identifying and utilizing work-related values to promote involvement in personally meaningful careers. This work draws upon multiple disciplines, including: Narrative Therapy, ACT, and Life Designing. The process I engaged students with promoted greater self-awareness around barriers to change and competencies that would lead them to designing more meaningful careers.Meeting the needs of students was made possible by a combination of collaboration with team members on new strategies and interventions for working with student populations and case consultations regarding particularly challenging situations.

Alongside my co-facilitator, group facilitation required explaining, demonstrating, and guiding Mindfulness and Narrative based interventions that might assist in promoting healthy coping and emotional regulation strategies. During this process, I assisted in facilitating conversations to help transform individuals' relationship with grief - from loss to celebration.

I generated and managed an extensive database - medical records, demographic information, mental health and physical assessment results - for clients with Schizophrenia/Schizoafective Personality Disorder participating in research through the Schizophrenia Outpatient Clinic.I reduced researcher conflict during client participation by organizing and scheduling phases of participation amongst multiple research team members.
